LibrePlanet 2014 stream recordings

The LibrePlanet 2014 conference
talks end today. Since there are no official recordings yet, several
users published copies of fragments of the live streams that they have
downloaded. This page lists the fragments that I know.

See the official program for a complete
list of talks. Live stream fragments of these talks are available:

We can’t all be cyborg lawyers: how messaging may be our most
important obstacle: video; with slides

Since these are only fragments of live stream downloaded using a
faulty script, many are incomplete and some are impossible to watch.
I haven’t found slides files for other talks; if the recording shows
slides, I’ve listed it above.

I don’t know what copyright licenses apply to the recordings: the
conference site lists Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 US for videos,
while I don’t believe some speakers would agree to use a free license
for their recordings, so I don’t trust this information.

Lessons learned from using wget to download the streams

I believed I knew how to download files via
HTTP using the wget
program. I was mistaken:

wget -c corrupts the file instead of resuming it

retry on timeout corrupts the file

I used wget in a loop with some delay between retries to download
the stream to another file after a part ended. Since the streams are
live and different at each time, the commonly used logic for resuming
overwrote earlier parts of the streams.

Why there is no standard and supported way to make HTTP servers inform
the client that each download gets a different document that shouldn’t
be downloaded to the same file?

Watching the talks

I used mpv to watch the downloaded files. The
media player program that I usually use, VLC, did not handle them
properly.
